An official with the World Assembly of Islamic Awakening deplored Western media's approach to Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei's letter to European and North American Youths.

Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani stressed that Muslims cannot be silent in the face of the events occurring throughout the Islamic world and urged them to assist the oppressed and fight against the oppressors calling it a religious duty.

As preparations are underway for the opening of the Cathedral mosque in Moscow, the Russian Muslim Board noted recently that several Muslim leaders along with leaders of different faiths will attend the long-awaited Islamic event, according to media reports.
